Xi Jinping ‘fully endorses’ Hong Kong government’s handling of oath-taking saga, chief executive say
Hong Kong’s only way out is support of the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development to push China toward democratization
Two newly-elected Hong Kong legislators refused to show loyalty to the Communist regime because they have lost faith in China’s commitment to the Hong Kong Basic Law. Article 39 of the Basic Law guarantees the right of the peoples of Hong Kong self-determination: on any public issue, the people have the right to self-determination through referendums and other similar measures. The people of Hong Kong should pledge to abide by the Basic Law and decide on their future through a referendum. Otherwise, when dictatorship becomes a reality, the people will be obligated to resist.
